Armored Brigade Nation Pack: France - Belgium

Certainly! The Armored Brigade Nation Pack: France - Belgium is an expansion for the real-time tactical wargame Armored Brigade.

This expansion adds complexity to the game by introducing these two nations with distinct army compositions and organizational structures.

France:

• France’s military history has shaped its approach to warfare. After World War I, they emphasized firepower over maneuverability.
• In the 1950s, France experimented with organizational structures for rapid battlefield maneuver, leading to the Division Type 1967.
• French formations in the 1970s were tank-heavy, focused on locating and delaying the enemy rather than holding ground.
• During the 1980s, infantry became more prominent in their forces.
• France mechanized most of its units using light, wheeled armored vehicles that can be air-transported and driven over poor roads and cross-country terrain.

Belgium

• As host to NATO since 1967, Belgium prioritizes being a reliable and credible ally.
• While lacking the protection of main battle tanks, Belgian wheeled armor units provide considerable firepower, often equipped with 90mm or even 105mm guns.
